August 6, 2015 was the 70th anniversary of the
dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
Japan, which killed up to 166,000 in Hiroshima and possibly
80,000 in Nagasaki. One survivor, Emiko Okada, now age 78, recalls: There
was the buzz of the plane, the huge flash, the cries for water, the kids like
ghosts with skin dangling off them, the people with their guts hanging out. (http://m.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c_id=2&objectid=11493175)
